Key management in a non-trusted distributed environment
نویسندگان
چکیده
Despite the fact that the World Wide Web is an untrusted environment, increasing use is being made of this network (the Internet) in electronic commerce applications. To prevent attacks a strong security architecture is required. A fundamental part of such an architecture is a method for key management. This paper discusses the various components of cryptographic key management especially in relation to the World Wide Web environment. Issues and problems with key generation, key distribution and key storage are raised. An overview is presented of key management systems in several security architectures including SSL, Kerberos and Sesame.

Applications running in a cloud data center face several challenges, including secure deployment, insider attacks, and cryptographic key management. Previous research shows how to securely start and run individual programs using the Trusted Platform Module or other secure co-processors, but none of that work solves the end-to-end problem of deploying and gaining assurance in distributed applica...
متن کاملDaonity: An Experience on Enhancing Grid Security by Trusted Computing Technology
A critical problem for grid security is how to gain secure solution for Grid virtual organization (VO). In Grid practice at present, issues of VO security rely on non-distributed policy management and related PKI mechanism. A practical but difficult solution is to enforce fine granularity policy over distributed sites. The emerging Trusted Computing (TC) technologies offer great potential to im...
